Code:
requiredTextResult=`hg cat -r tip $filePath | grep -F "$requiredText"`
if [[ ! $requiredTextResult =~ $requiredText ]]; then
    # do stuff
    exit 1
fi

NAME
ocamlify - create an OCaml file including other files. SYNOPSIS
ocamlify [options] option-file DESCRIPTION
This program allows to copy files inside OCaml code. It uses a first file that describes the other files that must be included and the type of OCaml variable it should create. It can also describe dependencies to other files, in order to generate .depends files for make. For example, we can create a file test.mlify with this content: VarString oasissys_ml "OASISSys.ml" VarStringList readme_template_mkd "MANUAL-template.mkd" We then translate it using the program: $> ocamlify --output test.ml test.mlify And we get a file test.ml containing two OCaml variables: oasissys_ml, which is a string, and readme_template_mkd which is a string list (one string per line). OPTIONS
--var-string-list varname file Include file as a list of string, each string representing a line (without trailing EOL character) --var-string varname file Include file as a string. --output file Output file, default to standard output --depends Output file dependencies --target file Define target of dependencies -help|--help Display list of options AUTHORS
